cardo- as for the sound naka kabit na kami dito ng 8" na solo sub on about 2 d-maxs' na and some 8" compvr, under the seats, just have to add spacer under the seat stand para kasya box. sealed enclosure lang so that smaller. one unit has 3 way DLS Iridiums and 8" solo, ok na ok ang sound, changed the deck to pioneer 7650 amp na rockford forgot what model. but most 2 way lang na DLS IR.

quicksie-sa d-max lang to ha, sa frontier kasya sa likod ng seat back sub box, unlike sa d-max and ranger walang space sa likod ng seat back. sa d-max dapat below the seats sa rear.

What's flexiride?:confused:

flexiride or flex ride is the softer suspension setup offered by isuzu on their vehicles since dec.2004 i think. it has less "tagtag" feeling. but i think it sacrifices some payload capacity in the dmax.

sa ride comfort noticable daw difference between old and newer dmaxs'

ARB,

Thanks for the tip! Kasya pala eights under the seat. May shop po kayo? May tanong pa sana ako sa Alpine HU -ipod setup hehehe

Hey guys, ano bang magandang setup sa d-max? sound upgrade? or wheels and tires?

I checked some 20 inch blings and OMG! An mahal pala ng goma. 15-16K isa! And low profile sya, nakakatakot. Ricey ba pag nag 16's chrome mags then Mud tires? Parang feeling 4x4 yun 4x2 ko :D hehehe I'm also thinking there will be so much noise from those mean mud tires at highway cruising. Also, sabi ng shop masmatibay at masmatagal madegrade yun rubber ng M/T's

By the way, our d-max already has the flex-ride. although i could'nt spot the difference with the previous nonflexy dmax's. I test drove an 04 blue d-max when we were looking to buy one. our agent says, reduced payload for the new flexy ride dmax's.

ah ok. I was thinking of getting a box din sa likod kaya lang mawawalan ng lalagyan ng tools. Hmm pacostomize kaya ako ng box sa subs at toolbox tama!

**cardo** · May 21st, 2005 02:51 PM

quicksie, bili ka ng utility box para sa tools hehehe. I got one since the tools that I kept inside were noisy and bulky. also yun itsy bitsy stock car jack had to be replaced with a bigger more heavy duty type. keeping it inside occupied alot of leg space. then you have other things like rope, towing cable, extra car fluids, cargo covers for the things you load at the back etc.

guys, kung magpapalagay ako ng subwoofer box under the seats ano yun mounting depth dapat ng subs? thanks

**quiksie** · May 22nd, 2005 02:46 PM

hindi na po pwede ang utility box kasi may roller-up cover ako sa likod

**kurt** · May 24th, 2005 09:17 AM

darn it

wala pa daw new front shocks ko. wala daw sa isuzu phils (shock absorbers lang ito wala sila, sa lubak ng mga kalsada sa metro manila hindi nila inisip mag stock nito) dinamay pa customs sa tagal ng pag dating ng bagong stocks nila sa monday daw release.

this adds to my increasing dissatisfaction with isuzu phils and its dealers.

arb, sending you a PM inquiring about labor and parts for replacing dmax shock absorbers

thanks
